it define clean, green energy and renewable [inaudible] election to be held november 3, 2015. >> thank you very much. the rules committee meeting was to insure that we had our committee meeting to review the last minute changes that were made to this ordinance for the ballot and not sure if president breed has anything to share, but we have jason breed the director of [inaudible] to explain the new version of the legislation. >> jason [inaudible] local agency formation. the legislation in front of you has been changed into baseic ways that the previous version had been talked about. those twho

ways, we take out discussion about nuclear energy and add the above [inaudible] will work with reporting of category 3 renewable energy credits. there is no under state rules there are regulations how much you use for minimum standards but nothing beyond that. the sit a puts a voluntary limit on what it can do with category 3 credits using the same standards for the minimum complice to the rest of the load with exception between the meeting not being counted [inaudible] the roof top solar is not something in category 3 and san franciscos goal is get as much renewable energy on the roof top. 9 percent of the load will fall into that category so we konet want to

deemphasize that so will take out that caveat and [inaudible] in the system to what the stardards are fl the minimum compliance levels the state has and will stick to that. if you have questions i'm happy to answer them >> thank you so what was before with 2 measures going to the ballot is our push and to have greater roof top solar was being threatened and being able to count that as part of our clean effort >> yes. there will be restrictions for minimum rpf compliance but not the maximum levels so it gives the flexibility to have the roof top solar fill in the gap above the minimum compliance levels >> okay great, thank you. we can open up this item for public comment .

>> [inaudible] you try to [inaudible] by not turning on the air conditioner but [inaudible] >> thank you. next speaker, please >> good morning for once supervisors. eric [inaudible] with various groups including san francisco clean energy advocates. the other problem

with i [inaudible] measure is it will set different standards for pge so it can get away with calling [inaudible] when we couldn't-it was silly. on what is happening today, advocates want to make very clear that ibw made an agreement that after you vote on this in the hearing and send it forward they will send out a press release immediately announcing their intention tooz campaign against their measure and for our measure including putting a ballot statement saying don't vote for this, vote for the other one. advocates need to see that happened before you all at the board in about a half-hour vote to send it forward. if doesn't happen i know it is drag to be here friday, but you need to hold that vote until the press release goes out or we feel we don't have a deal and if we

lose quorum and have to go to a pal balt misher fight we are plepaired to do that and will and will win. the last thing is hopefully ibw is watching and if they attempt this in other counties-i'm part of a state wide organization on community choice and will aggressively defend any county. >> thank you very much. any other member of the public who would like to comment? seeing none we'll close public comment. before we have a vote on this measure muchbing forward i would like to see if we have a motion >> make a motion to excuse supervisor tang, she cannot be here with us today >> take that without objection. you areoon the committee today. okay. just announced president breed is a member of the committee today so president breed will be voting with us. so, president breed

>> thank you. i just want to thank there l the party involved in trying to build a consensus about around this issue. we all care about prckting the environment and this is a significant way to do that. i just want to say to supervisor cohen and supervisor avalos, thank you for hosting this meeting at such short notice. this particular item today will help us hopefully prevent a fight at the ballot this november and bring all parties together in order to move this forward and not only follow state regulations, but enhance reguless here in the city and county of san francisco. especially because we want to launch clean power sooner rather than later. what we are doing here is just a step forward in that direction.

the mayor has made a commitment to move aggressively forward and launching this program and we are committed to that so fortunately at the ballot box this won't create that level of a problem so that clean power is delayed in the skity and county of san francisco. i'm excited, it has take an long time to get here. i just joined the fight when i became a member of the board met many here today have been advocateing for this for many many year jz it is trully amazing we got to this point and look forward to this measure passing in november and hopefully passing at the board and hopefully ibw sticking to their word and supporting the ballot measure and all of us coming together on this particular issue so we can move this problem forward as soon as possible. thank you jason freed for all your work for many many years on this

particular issue. you have been consistently fighting to balance all sides so we can get to this point so excited and look ing forward to the launch of clean power in san francisco finally. last but not least, thank you supervisor avalos for being my partner on this particular issue and it has been great to work with you and your team, both jermany and connor in our office have been grain grait on this issue as well. thank you >> thank you. i think we had 2 bites of the apple last year, one looking at how the pec budget extracted dollars for the reserve for clean power and we prevented that for happening and you coming calling for the study for ininstrumental as well. we can have a motion to move this item forward?
